PVP Mode Explanatory Notes

PvP Moveset Explanation
Confusion or Water Gun + Psychic and Blizzard or Fire Blast

Confusion and Water Gun sport identical energy generation, though the former offers higher damage output. 

Psychic costs the least amount of energy, and hits decently hard with STAB. Blizzard and Fire Blast both cost ridiculous amounts of energy to access, but provide can provide good coverage if you can get to it. 

PvP Rating Explanation
Great League: 1.5 / 5

Slowking as a Psychic/Water Pokemon is quite bulky in PvP, though its moveset is cumbersome. Unspectacular energy generation and high energy costs from its charge moves makes it difficult to apply shield pressure, let alone access its coverage moves reliably. 

Ultra League: 1 / 5

Slowking's cumbersome movesets are its main drawbacks in PvP. Its Psychic typing and movesets easily handle Fighting-types in this league, but isn't as good against the rest of the meta. 

Master League: 0 / 5

Slowking too slow for Master League. Literally.
